... to lead?
At the Lindner College of Business, we embrace diversity and are excited to offer this new summer institute for a select group of African American and Hispanic students (rising high school juniors and seniors) to learn from and network with leaders who are making a difference in their communities and industries.
To us, business is more than suits, sales and statistics. It’s about changing the world - whether that’s through innovation and entrepreneurial spirit that brought the world companies like Google and Twitter, or through leadership and the drive to make a difference as we’ve seen with companies like TOMS and Whole Foods.
Whether you want to lead a Fortune 500 company, manage a non-profit organization or start your own company, business leadership skills can help you get where you want to go.
“Almost always, the creative dedicated minority has made the world better. ”
